If you like the sound of a 335 but like me struggle a bit with the size, Gibson have just solved our problem. I own a 355 and it’s one of my fave’s, but I struggle to adjust to it mid set when I’ve just been playing a Strat. It’s not the size; it’s the difference in size .... if you get my drift. I know if I played my 355 all the time I’d adapt. These days though many guitarists own more than one instrument, often loads more and like me want to use them in anger. 

 

Seated or standing the 339 is very comfortable and snuggles into the body like a regular solid body. The neck is sublime to play. It’s a chunky affair but has the feel of a late ‘50s Junior which to my mind and many other Gibson fans is the holy grail of necks. I can’t explain beyond that - you’ll just have to come in and try it....

 

Fitted with a pair of ‘57 classic Humbuckers all the sounds are here. Maybe a tad tighter than a full blown semi but in a blindfold test I think most wouldn’t know the difference. Construction is the same as its big brother, the all important centre block is there to tame any unwanted feedback tendencies. However you can, with some experimentation coax this guitar into some wonderful harmonic feedback that’ll add an extra dimension to your repertoire. I’m totally blown away with this guitar; I just need to be as creative as the guitar is to come up with a method of securing one. Soooo, Dear Santa...................gotta be worth a go!?
